Bus bar current Calculator:
Enter the breadth and thickness of the bus bar; do not enter the length of the bus bar. Then press the
calculate button, you get the aluminium or copper bus bar current carrying capacity in amps. You can
choose the type of bus bar, either aluminium or copper or galvanized bars or iron bus bar or silver in
the results.
Enter Busbar Width: 50mm
Enter Busbar Thickness: 25mm

Result – Copper Busbar Current:


1500A
Result – Aluminium Busbar Current:
1000A
Result – Iron Busbar Current:
750A
Result – GI Busbar Current:
750A
Result – Silver Busbar Current:
2000A
More details about Bus bar: What is Bus bar Current Carrying Capacity Calculation 5 Types of Bus bar

Bus bar current Calculator working:


As the stated thumb rule that the aluminium carries 0.8 times of the area, copper will be 1.2 times,
silver will be 1.6 times, iron and GI will be 0.6 times.

Hence the formula for calculating current carrying capacity,


Copper:
Copper bus bar current carrying capacity = 1.2 * Bus bar width in mm * Thickness in mm Amps
Aluminium:
Aluminium bus bar current carrying capacity = 0.8 * Bus bar width in mm * Thickness in mm Amps
Iron Bus bar
Iron bus bar current Carrying capacity = 0.6 * Bus bar width in mm * Thickness in mm Amps
GI Bus bar
Galvanized bus bar current Carrying capacity = 0.6 * Bus bar width in mm * Thickness in mm Amps
Silver Bus Bar
Silver bus bar current Carrying capacity = 1.6 * Bus bar width in mm * Thickness in mm Amps

Example:
Calculate the 150 x 25 mm bus bar current carrying capacity in all the above materials,
Copper bar carries 4500Amps (1.2 x 150 x 25) current
Aluminium Carries 3000 Amps (0.8 x 150 x 25) Current
GI Bus Bar Carries 2250 Amps (0.6*150*25) Current
Iron Bus bar carries 2250 Amps
Silver bus bar carries 6000 Amps (1.6*150*25) Current.
